While working on my album I’m working on many drumkits (racks) to build a huge libary of drumsounds. Today I’ve made a classic jungle kit I want to share with you all.

The rack contains a couple of fx that you can use to shape your kit with a 3 band EQ that I’ve got from Tarekith, a washing reverb, compression, distortion and there’s also a delay effect you can use to make little juggle style cuts.

The second release of Eastern Promise Audio with an EP of London’s based jungle producer “Double O”. EPA asked me to do the artwork and as you can see I kept the feel of the identity I designed on the first release EPA01 but with a nice warm and fresh approach.

Up to the next one 🙂

More info of this release:

After introducing itself with the sounds of Dam Nation, digital drum ‘n bass label Eastern Promise Audio is set for a very special second release; an EP featuring the sounds of London-based dnb pioneer Double O.

Already being played out by numerous DJ’s worldwide, this release has been anticipated for a long time and will perpetuate EPA’s quest for bringing dark and atmospheric drum ‘n bass that refreshes both the ears and soul.

Double O has been rising on the scene as one of the most promising artists in the world of drum ‘n bass today, bringing the more jungle-oriented rhythms which he combines with both dark ambiance and dub-oriented vibes. Besides releasing on various labels since the early jungle days, he and his Rupture crew have been doing their own radio show together with DJ/producer Mantra on Jungletrain, and have thrown down their own raves for the last five years in central London where the dark side of the jungle still can be found. After EPA got introduced to his sounds, it has been awaiting to release the Why Are We Here? EP for years until it was ready to launch, and is proud to now finally do so.
